The composition of a natural landscape is one of the most influential inspirations for my designs. Capturing these landscapes in photos taught me everything from perspective to timing to the atmosphere.

As the use of public transportation took a big hit from the pandemic, the ‘transit ecosystem’ idea explores the potential use of existing transit facilities such as delivery and public services. The integrations of this solution also take advantage of the existing abandoned parking spaces for affordability and feasibility

Bank Street Reconstruction

(Riverside Drive to Ledbury Avenue) Ottawa, ON

Category: Streetscape design Role (interdesiplinary work): Conceptual design, detailed design, Medium: AutoCAD, Photoshop

Bank Street is the longest street in Ottawa and the centre axis throughout many parts of the city. The reconstruction of Bank Street from Riverside Drive to Ledbury Avenue proposed new bike lanes and underground utilities, which create a great opportunity for new streetscape. The streetscape design promotes urban canopy, accesibility, and placemaking landscape.

Material palette was picked to compliment the neighborhood character and City of Ottawa streetscape guidelines. It is also a great tool for public engagement. The feedbacks from public are critical for the design team to address issues relating the project.
